Check out this 10-minute gameplay footage of The Last Guardian from ESGS 2016

We got a quick run through of genDESIGN and SIE Japan Studios’ upcoming action adventure title, The Last Guardian.

Sony Interactive Entertainment is one of the Electronic Sports and Gaming Summit’s biggest exhibitors this year, bringing not only Call of Duty Infinite Warfare but also their much awaited title, The Last Guardian.

Revealed during E3 2015, The Last Guardian is heavily influenced by PlayStation classics such as Ico and Shadow of the Colossus and whose gameplay largely involves solving puzzles to uncover the story between a young male protagonist and his feathered friend Trico, a large griffin like being whose attitude can somehow be likened to a curious cat, as per what we experienced from our brief run through.

As it largely involves puzzle solving, the initial levels of The Last Guardian would have you climbing up ledges a-la Assassin’s Creed style, pulling levers and opening doors while also being aided by Trico to help get to hard-to-reach areas.

The Last Guardian is expected for release this coming December 6, 2016 for the PlayStation 4 in Japan and in the USA.
